DeRoyal LMB Acu-Spring Finger Extension Assist

LMB Finger Extension Assist Features

• High quality Wire-Foam construction for a customized fit
• Ideal for regaining last few degrees of PIP extension
• Axis of motion is close to the PIP joint to maintain splint alignment
• Broad, curved dorsal center pad distributes pressure over a large area
• Tension is adjustable by careful bending
• Force:
  - 15ƒ€š‚° flexion - approximately 12 oz
  - 90ƒ€š‚° flexion - approximately 6 lbs
• Intended Use:
  - Fits from the head of the metacarpal to the distal interphalangeal joint
  - Used to assist the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP) into increased extension
  - Minimal effect on metacarpophalangeal (MP) extension

More Information

• Directions For Use
• - Select the correct size.
  - To fit the spring, slide splint onto finger so the proximal pad rests over the volar aspect of the metacarpal head and the distal pad rests at the distal interphalangeal joint (DIP).
  - To adjust spring tension, there are two options:
  - To increase the force of extension, spread the volar pads apart before placing on the finger.
  - To decrease the force of extension, pinch the volar pads together before placing on the finger.
• Care Instructions
  - Splint can be cleaned by hand washing with a nonabrasive detergent.
  - Air dry before wearing.
